Do you ever tell the truth????
Do you ever stop making a big ass of yourself? Serious question. I actually feel sorry for you - and I am not known for my sympathic nature. Apparently, you can even tell who your responding to... cuz you just insulted your buddy instead of me. How very silly of you.
You know this question is for you, cow. Why don't you answer it instead of pretending to be dumb. Serious question. Do you ever tell the truth??? I didn't mean to stump you.
I've always loved a good cat fight but you two aren't quite there yet, you mind picking it up a little. For my amusement ...

I do my best, Lumps, but it's tricky to fight with the mentally unarmed.Palin Derangement Syndrome Hits Hard
The Washington Post company abandons its standards trying to take down Sarah Palin.
Let us have a moment of silence in honor of the late journalism standards of The Washington Post company. They died last week, a victim of Palin Derangement Syndrome.
First came Newsweek's cover of Palin in running shorts, over a headline of "How do you solve a problem like Sarah?" and a snide kicker that "she's bad news for the GOP--and everybody else too."
Beyond the obvious partisanship, many women, Palin included, found the cover sexist and an attempt to demean her with the bimbo treatment.
There might also be legal fallout. Newsweek, owned by The Post, had no right to use the photo, according to Runner's World magazine, which commissioned it.
The company's flagship paper also embarrassed itself. It published dueling reviews of Palin's book "Going Rogue," with snarky blogger Ana Marie Cox making an astounding confession in her review:
"I cannot claim to have completely read 'Going Rogue' -- I had to skim the last 150 pages (or more than one-third). I only got the thing into my hands late Monday afternoon with a deadline of early evening. It's terrible, I know, but if I didn't read it all, neither can Sarah Palin claim to have completely written it."
My inquiry about how this could possibly be acceptable was answered by Rachel Shea, editor of the paper's Book World. She said in a breezy e-mail: "We thought our reviewers each provided unique perspectives on the book, and Ana Marie Cox was up front about her examination of it."
There you have it. The Post no longer requires reviewers to actually read the books they are reviewing, as long as they are "up front" about it.
It's Sarah Palin's fault.

Since you're claiming we have some sort of "derangement syndrome" for her, can you tell me what she represents to you? I want specifics, not just "everything libs fear." What's her platform, her plan, and her agenda, and why should I do anything other than laugh at her?

That's the thing - she has no platform, plan or agenda. Why should she? She's not running for anything. I see no earthly reason why anyone - left or right - is obsesses with Palin, but they are.

My question is really directed at her supporters rather than her. She obviously stands for something to the OP if Brn2bfree is this interested in defending her, so I want to know what.
And really, the way she's promoting her book, I think she's taking a page from the Obama campaign and gearing for 2012...
Sure you have. You keep insisting that using a ghostwriter - in this instance - is misleading the public buying the book. That is simply not true.... unless you care to also insist that, say, Obama also misleads the public by professing to have written his books. And that every sports personality, politician, and any other celebrity who has written a book is also misleading the public. The job of a ghost is to write the words of others - it's actually quite a tough job - they spend countless hours researching, interviewing the individual, their friends, family, associates, etc etc etc and write not in their own style but in the style of the person they are writing as. They get paid exceptionally well for signing over any rights to their work. I know, I've done it - actually, I'm doing it right now. Am I misrepresenting? No, I am taking the work of someone else and crafting it into something that other people will want to read. He gets paid for his expertise, I get paid for mine. No one will ever know that I wrote it, and I am fine with that. That's the job.
Good jelly grease beans! Look at what I posted a couple of pages ago:
"Here's a quick example of the deception:
"Sarah Palin has finished her memoir just four months after the book deal was announced."
Sarah Palin Book, Going Rogue: An American Life, to Be Released November 17 - ABC News
She didn't write it but I'm guessing due to false advertising as shown above many people believe she is the author. Look at the definition of memoir:
Memoir Definition | Definition of Memoir at Dictionary.com
1. a record of events written by a person having intimate knowledge of them and based on personal observation.
By that article she wrote the book....but we know she didn't. That's active deception and maybe you are of the character that celebrates successful lying to consumers, I don't care if you are or not. What I do know is ghostrwriting that deceives the audience is unethical"
I don't give a rat's if it's palin, obama, or owens. Any public figure who puts out a "memoir" that was ghost written engages in the unethical art of deception. It is not the act of ghostwriting that is unethical (I actually wish you would use one on here) but the active deception as given in the above example of how palin's book is sold as if she were the actual author.
If you have failed to comprehend my position again, may I interest you in a ghostreader?
I'm aware of what you posted. The sad thing is that you clearly are not familiar with how the world of publishing works. Therefore, I can't see any reason why we should continue to debate this.
You are entrenched in your own opinion. I, on the other hand, have fact on my side. End of discussion.
She's real. People hate that.

That's precisely as backwards as it can get. I've clearly acknowledged the use of ghostwriting in publishing and I've clearly stated it is not simply the act of ghostwriting that is unethical. It's your opinion there is nothing ever wrong it. I'm the only one who presented facts to support my opinion. We both agree ghostwriting is standard practice so that fact can't be on "your side" alone. I posted a link showing for a FACT Palin's book was being sold as if she personally wrote it. You completely ignored that. Most people agree active deception is unethical.
I have no problem with people criticizing her statements, her ideology, or her book. I have a real problem with people like Martha Stewart calling her "dangerous" without one legitimate reason for saying so. Why would anyone "fear" an "amusement" or a"joke" as so many have called her on here? I thought the SNL commercial was more than just an attack on Palin. It was making a mockery of what so many on the left have been saying about her. Palin 2012 - Floods, Earthquakes, Tidal Waves... How could such an inconsequential person threaten the power of the socialist movement in this country. Seriously?
I agree with this as well and I even liked some of the Fay impersonations and some of the jokes about her are funny as hell but what Letterman did was over the top and the constant degradation of her as someone being really stupid gets annoying. They do this because the communist in this country don't want a normal person in office that would divert people away from the state but to their own lives.
She's real. People hate that.
She's a real:
Quitter
Hypocrite
Sell out
Eschatological nightmare
I guess we agree she is real.

Most people are intelligent enough to understand what ghostwriting is. It is not deception. If it was a deception, it would be unethical. I keep trying to explain to you that ghostwriters don't write their own opinion, embelish or add content - they write only what they are told by the subject - it is the subject's own story - a ghostwriter just makes it readable. That is not dishonest or unethical. That is a fact - whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.

Each one of those can equally apply to our current POTUS. But, he's black so he gets a pass.

You have to be mother fucking kidding. What in the nasty clam juice shit is your fucking problem you can't read a short post? You prance around on this forum with a self appointed hammer of intelligence as if you are capable or have the authority to dismiss those who disagree with you as not being intelligent. You're so fucking unbelievably self righteous. Let me try again:
IT IS UNDERSTOOD GHOSTWRITING IS STANDARD IN PUBLISHING.
IT IS STILL UNETHICAL IF A BOOK IS MARKETED AS IF THE PERSON ACTUALLY WROTE WHEN IN FACT THEY DID NOT.
It's really hard to believe you work in the field of literacy. Unless of course you're ghostwriting tops off on plots like the woman in the shoe, sleeping beauty, the three little pigs, etc. You can have the last word because I don't have enough toilet paper to keep cleaning up your shit.

I think Obama is a communist. Don't get upset because as long as he is a public figure then he is going to be attacked.
You can't have it both ways after all....
I'm not upset that he is being attacked, I don't mind the criticism one bit. It comes with the territory and I can accept that.
It's the Bushies and the Palinites who can't handle their heroes getting attacked to the point where they fabricate an all emcompassing "syndrome" to use as the ultimate deflector shield to any and all attacks that come their way.
See the difference?
No because Palin and Bush criticism had a much different flavor than McCain criticism. I didn't see any of the haywired craziness about Obama that I have seen about Bush or for a lot of conservatives.
On the other hand, painting anyone who disagrees with Obama as having racist motives is the ultimate deflector shield.

Hey everybody, curvelight has developed ethics. He also thinks the author can control the marketing. Maybe he just developed a cold.
Good point. In my enthusiasm to explain the process, I had completely missed the importance of who does the marketing, etc.
